The Team That FF Built

[tor01doc]

Won 5/5 and favoured to win 4/5 this week.

Have gone from 86000 to 27000 overall since round 8.

Low on trades but lots of cash.

Anyone who suggests premium fwds and defs gets to be owed some money.

Good effort this week !

Could you post the team please Doc ? :)

[tor01doc]

Goddard Gibbs Hanley Hartlett Terlich Thurlow (c)  ;) - Birchall Clisby (E)
GAJ Pendles Griffen JPK Cotchin Selwood Priddis Mundy - Mitchell Hrovat
Cox Jacobs - Nicholls Mr Bean
NicNat Walker SJ Zorko Buddy Staker - Mayes Bennedy

Sitting 4th 9th 9th 9th and 11th in leagues.

Look like winning 5/5 this week.

3 trades and $487K left.

This week 15/1675 so far.

After sitting near bottom of 4 leagues the team is looking like reaching finals in all 5 leagues.

Obviously need another defender and another forward and prob keep Birchall now as a good POD.

Any suggestions welcome.

Nice week.

[Vinny]

Sweeet !

As for a forward - I'd be looking at Roughy / Bartel.

Roughy is in great form with 3 RD avg of 116.

Bartel has been in great form all year and has many games at SS coming up where he could kill - But beware of resting.

As for a defender - I would go with The Cannon or Shaw.

Shaw speaks for himself - Top 3 Defender and has a very high cieling.

The Cannon - Great finals run ( Same as Freo ) Super consistent and very efficient. He had 100% effeciency a week back.

Can't go wrong with any of the four :)

Get Ibbotson as a defender, and either Bartel or JJK as a forward

[tor01doc]

Thurlow to Bartel leaves the team with $165k and 2 trades.

Terlich D6

Otherwise a full team when Birchall comes back.

Any better suggestions?

[Vinny]

Nope sounds good to me !

Just got hope no injuries come up :P

[robbo]

i think get rid of birchall, he wasnt scoring consistently and is still out for another 3-5 weeks

[tor01doc]

Thanks Robbo

With only 3 trades left I think trading Birchall out is too risky.

Leaves things too tight.

Anyone else suggests it then we will have another think.

[tor01doc]

At this stage I will put Jacobs as Emergency with MrBean on as captain with V on Pendles.

Any other suggestions?

Could get Bartel this week too.

Leaves 2 trades.

[Vinny]

Hold on Bartel.

I think 2 would be a little bit of a worry.

Bring in that last forward closer to finals or when it is needed to win a game or something.

Currently 3rd 7th 8th 8th and 9th after being very unlikely to make finals in all but one league.

Check the starting team and you'll see why only 3 trades left. A few vital wins have been managed with aggressive trading.

I will PM Crouchy and see what he thinks.

Hahah fair enough.

Would show my starting team but its too embarrassing  :-[

[tor01doc]

2nd 6th 7th 10th and 10th.

Look likely to win 4/5 this week barring selection mayhem.

One of this week's opponents scored 2505 last week and doesn't have Danger, SJ or Watson.

Only 2 trades left.

Birchall still on the bench.

crouchy, where are you?

[Ringo]

With 2 trades and winnable games think we should sit Doc.
